It's very nice, I love red and navy together, they go so well. Again this one reminds me of a jumper and skirt, not a bad thing either :) I'm not 100% sure on the little decorations, maybe there are too many? I'm not the best judge of appliques as I take so long to decide when adding them myself. I was thinking though that this outfit would look very nice with a knitted belt with a buckle at the front, maybe in stripes of both colours or in another colour like white. Just a thought, because I really think it looks nice as it is :) Bighugs Sharon xxx
Yes I too thought the additions were a bit much, so glad I did not sew them on. A belt may look good but without the garter stich below... well now I have an extra bobble one to knit and a version with a belt!!
I love it, but lose the sparkles,they detract from the look. Could maybe do the bobbles in the navy part and just a double row of stitches to start off the 'top' to make it look more two piece but love it. Well done you :)xx
It's so hard to believe that it's the same pattern being used! Just LOVE it... (but without the embellishments! It stands out on it's own.... pure and simple... just like a two piece, jumper and skirt.) Really clever!
phew ...it turned out good , I really like it ...I only suggested it as when I was little I had 2 knitted dresses, one the top was blue and the pleated skirt bit was red, white and blue , the other was yellow on the top and the attatched skirt was yellow, brown and white (it was the 70s) ...I think this looks lovely :) xxxx

ReplyDeleteI'm surprised about me thinking like Dee again.
Nice you asked us, interesting to read the different opinions.
This is turning out to be quite a lot of fun. Its lucky I'm a quick knitter and tend to work faster when I want to see the end result.

ReplyDeleteReally clever!
Its amazing what you can do with a few alterations and lots of suggestions.
